Chapter 740: Chapter 340: A Mountain Worshiped by Thousands, Dao Fruit Transformed Again
Among them are the likes of Cheng Yun, researchers who have worked at the nursing home for a long time and made significant contributions.
There are also instructors from the Jiushan Martial Arts Hall headed by Old Man Bai, and employees of the Jiushan Grain Company under Tang Lingwu.
And there are people from major universities and research institutes who previously designed the “Nezha” experimental machine.
Although not everyone was able to attend, there were still many people.
In the eyes of these people, there was nothing but excitement, like being in a dream or a fantasy.
Zheng Fa looked at these excited faces, a smile appeared on the young face of the Nascent Soul, and he opened his mouth with a loud, resonant voice like the toll of a great bell:
“Please enter the Preaching Hall, everyone.”
The crowd at the foot of the mountain clasped their hands and bowed towards the Nascent Soul, quickly yet quietly entering the newly built Preaching Hall—a large auditorium newly constructed on Rainbow Mountain, since the previous classroom could not accommodate so many people to listen to the lecture.
Zheng Fa’s Divine Sense detached from the Nascent Soul and returned to his own body. He turned to look at the Nascent Soul in the sky, equally astonished.
When advancing to the Nascent Soul and displaying the “Spirit Mountain Technique” again, this anomaly on Rainbow Mountain surprised even him—
The Nascent Soul he condensed suddenly emerged from his body, radiating brilliant light over Rainbow Mountain, and the Spirit Vein in the mountain truly formed the shape of a tortoise and snake.
The Spiritual Energy on Rainbow Mountain seemed not just to have been upgraded; it had become much more lively and sprightly.
Zheng Fa calmed his mind, lifted his leg to step out of the nursing home, and the next step brought him in front of the Preaching Hall.
Inside the Preaching Hall, there was no high platform, only thousands of cushions.
Zheng Fa walked to the cushion at the front and sat down, looking at the crowd.
In the vast auditorium, with thousands of listeners, there was not a sound.
Old Man Bai and Tang Lingwu sat side by side in the first row, eagerly anticipating.
“From today on, I will be preaching here for a month.”
“The content of this lecture will start from the Qi Cultivation Stage and end at the Foundation Establishment Stage, supplemented by knowledge of talismanic magic.”
“If there is anything you do not understand, you may interrupt without adhering strictly to formalities.”
After Zheng Fa finished speaking, he began to lecture on the introductory Cultivation Techniques.
As he looked at these listeners, he also felt a sense of anticipation in his heart—
It’s important to know that these people were not randomly selected.
Cheng Yun, the researchers, and those from universities and research institutes need not be mentioned, they have sharp minds and a rich accumulation of knowledge, making them the best candidates for disciples in Zheng Fa’s mind.
As for the grain company and the people from the Jiushan Martial Arts Hall, they were not ordinary either:
They were either good in commerce or had outstanding talent in martial arts.
In short, these people could be considered the elites among ordinary people.
Zheng Fa opened the school, partly because his cultivation was now at the Nascent Soul level, and the Spiritual Energy on Rainbow Mountain had greatly increased, making it no longer difficult to accommodate these people for cultivation, so he simply fulfilled his promise.
On the other hand, he had special expectations for another thing—the Fusang Wood.
The Fusang Wood was originally the Demon Emperor Dao Fruit, but in his hands, it inexplicably underwent some changes, moving further and further away from the term “Demon Emperor.”
Now, as he increasingly understood the Dao Fruit cultivators, he had more conjectures about the Fusang Wood—for example, in modern times, he vaguely had the title of Daoist Ancestor.
According to the ritual for the Great Freedom Demon Emperor to attain the Dao, Dao Fruits require rituals to be perfected, and the ritual itself can be said to be a kind of recognition from heaven, earth, and all living beings.
And the transformation of his Fusang Wood Dao Fruit also occurred after it integrated into the modern sun, bringing Spiritual Energy to the modern world.
In other words—the current Fusang Wood Dao Fruit might be related to the term “Daoist Ancestor.”
Previously, the transformation of the Fusang Wood was extremely slow, or even showed no movement, which somewhat troubled Zheng Fa.
After all, the Haori Mountain is eyeing covetously, and the Immortal Trapping Sword is dangerously close. His main card in opposing the Dao Fruit is the Fusang Wood.
After all, without the Entrapping Immortal Sword Skill at hand, even if he had it, he might not be able to truly control the Immortal Trapping Sword.
After thinking it over and referencing many novels and myths, Zheng Fa had a conjecture in his heart that the duty of a Daoist Ancestor might be related to preaching or even large-scale preaching!
Previously, he didn’t have enough cultivation, and the Spiritual Energy on Rainbow Mountain was insufficient.
Broadly accepting disciples and large-scale preaching was purely fantasy.
Now that he had formed the Nascent Soul, Zheng Fa decided to open the gate of the school—or rather, conduct a preaching experiment!
…
With high expectations in his heart, Zheng Fa looked at these new disciples and began speaking from meditation and breath regulation.
Every day, the lectures began at six in the morning and ended at four in the afternoon, without stopping for a single day.
Now that the cultivation system of Jiushan Realm is complete, even without the Yuan Condensing Pill, unable to train with the Talisman Dao Foundation Establishment Method, Zheng Fa was thoroughly familiar with the choices and key points for Cultivation Techniques before the Nascent Soul stage.
Speaking fluently and skillfully.
Yet, he was somewhat disappointed: twenty days had passed, and the Fusang Wood hadn’t changed.
Was he wrong?
Zheng Fa sighed inwardly, feeling a bit of a fool for entertaining such notions, but he showed nothing on his face. After finishing the lecture on Cultivation Methods, he began lecturing on talismanic magic or spells.
Jiushan Talismanic Dao is now based on topology, Zheng Fa lecturing while demonstrating by painting talismans with his hand.
The faces of most disciples below the stage showed a bit of distress, evidently troubled by the notion of topology.
But among them were many academic figures and even some scholars in mathematics, listening with keen interest.
As Zheng Fa lectured, suddenly countless thoughts filled his mind—
This talismanic diagram seems to be further decomposed?
There’s a problem with this topological transformation… wrong!
No, no, this talismanic diagram is completely different from the previous one, not the same!
At first, Zheng Fa merely thought he was gaining new insights into the talismanic Dao from lecturing, but gradually he felt something was off:
These thoughts came too much, too messily, and even seemed to suddenly pop up.
He suddenly looked up, his gaze piercing through the rooftop, only to see the Fusang Wood in the great sun in the sky, seemingly trembling and growing in a manner invisible to the naked eye.
